I've been using session manager and a tab storage program.It seems they can't run at the same time, though they can work together by transferring info.It's a case of 'cassa contra cassa'.

There are others I plan to try.

I guess you are right. Firefox I only go so far with, as with most browsers for that matter. And when it comes to add ons, I dont even bother. Why? There is no reason to bother with add ons if the browsers work right.
Lately I have been using firefox but also using Chrome and Safari due to the IPV6 factor. Firefox is not IPV6 ready yet.

Plus Safari, Chrome and Opera are looking to be more complete browsers on so many new levels these days.

The first telephone numbers in the latter part of the 19th century were short and simple, made up of no more than a few digits. Calls would be routed through operators and these operators would then manually patch these calls into the lines of their intended recipients. As more and more people got telephones, the length of telephone numbers grew from three to four to seven and then eventually to 10 digits and beyond. Today, cities like Manhattan have been forced to have multiple area codes (917, 646, 212, 347, etc.) and if you want to dial outside of your country, add on a few more numbers.

So what does this history lesson have to do with YouTube? IP (the Internet Protocol) is the protocol used to communicate data across the Internet in the same way telephones connected conversations over a century ago. Each connection has an IP address that works like a telephone number. Just like telephone numbers, these IP addresses need to grow to accommodate all the new people coming online. The problem is that IPv4, the current version of the Internet protocol, uses a 32-bit address and those addresses are running out of space -- fast. In 2000, Internet users had consumed 50% of IPv4 address space. Today, IPv4 has less than 10% of addresses available. When address space runs out, users will have to share addresses, because there won't be enough to go around.

But there is hope. IPv6 has a vastly larger address space (128-bit) and allows everyone to have an incredibly large number -- 264 or more -- of personalized IP addresses for all their devices (think of it as having a whole telephone exchange in your home). Not having to share IP addresses is good for users because it means better, more relevant information can be delivered to them whenever they want it. It's a win for openness and new applications because any device can connect directly to any other device on the Internet. It's even a win for security, because it's harder for hackers to find your computer and attack it. But up until now, IPv6 still hasn't gotten as much traction as IPv4. And content creators and users have yet to adopt it on a wide scale.

Since the very first announcement of ipv6.google.com (IPv6 connection required; if you don't have it, ask your ISP to deploy it), we have been committed to supporting IPv6 and have steadily added IPv6 support to more and more services. The service most requested to have IPv6 support has unquestionably been YouTube. Given all of this, we're proud to make YouTube available over IPv6 and to begin streaming videos from a select number of sites worldwide to our Google over IPv6 partners. With YouTube on board, we now have a significant amount of content delivered on IPv6 and a real audience/traffic for it. This is a good day for YouTube, our users and for an open and accessible Internet.

Now there are many here that know I have been pushing IPV6 since I have been on eplaya for many years.

The main reason why is as I have always said here on eplaya; it's the most secure, it is efficient and expedient.But dont take my word for it, take the word of the top leading engineers in the field of IPV6:

IPv6 will be faster in several ways. Physically, because IPv6 does not fragment the packets as IPv4 does. Logically, because IPv6 will be hierarchical, thus internet routers won't need such large routing tables. In addition, IPv6 headers have been redesigned to speed their path through a router and to create true 'end to end' capability, the result is more efficient network traffic on the internet backbone

AZII and Spec can argue all they like this time but the fact is IPV6 is just that way and always has been.

Oh and hey, I hope these two dont feel bad. I have been up against some of the best engineers that have argued the same as AZII and Spec......(well not really if you know what I mean) and they too see the light now.

I have my flatsceen hooked up to my computer with a DVI/cable out card with a HDMI conversion cable using NVIDIA.

This works fine, but when I switch it off from cloned back to single display, the aspect ratio on the regular dell 19inch monitor is somewhat skewed, and certain websites cause my shit to 'freeze" when I try to access them with it like this.

It ain't the browser, I can't reach these sites no matter which one I use.

One of these is REALLY important to my daily rituals(unlike Eplaya, haha).

It was fine for the last 2 months, but now it doesn't switch back to the original aspect, it stays slightly enlarged, which is what's causing the problem.

Anyone have any idea what the fuck happened ?

edit :

Oh , and BTW, by keeping it cloned, with the flatscreen TV as the main display, I am able to surf without a problem, but this leaves the 19inch Dell screen stretched vertically, and kinda hurts my one eye after a while.

We have an obligation to make space for everyone, we have no obligation to make that space pleasant.

Can someone tell me how the fuck to remove firefox 3.6?
I'll gut all of it if I have to.
Once again, firefox isn't supporting yahoo, so I'm locked out of my account.
I've had non-stop issues with whatever the hell yahoo is doing on their own.
Yahoo just tells me to get IE.
There's a reason that isn't on my machine.

And I'm open to suggestions for a better service.

No clue gyre, been using firefox and yahoo for the last 4 years and no issues. I only have about 5 add ons. like firefox way more than IE..

yup, me too.......I can access all Yahoo stuff I try.
have you updated Firefox? I'm on 3.5.8 version.

I'm using XP pro on this machine.

Ok so yea, go to control panel and choose add and remove, BUT MAKE SURE YOU BACK UP YOUR BOOKMARKS. any add ons that you have for 3.6, you are going to need to reinstall them again. as far as email client goes, use Thunderbird email client.

Also make sure you know/remember all of your passwords you normally have firefox remember.
You can backup your cookies but that's not the best idea and you should already have all of your passwords memorized already anyway.

Install Thunderbird first before removing firefox so at least you can backup your email. I also would double back up your email with outlook express. Comes with XP.

Another consistent issue I have is trying to go back to a letter after it is sent, or I accidentally moved forward or back.
I used to be able to do this.
Now I've lost the letter.
Gone.

Also when I try to paste on a letter that has text, I get highlighted text against my will.
Every letter I spend five minutes going back and forth until I can paste without the highlight erasing the text.
I don't know who designs this shit.

Amazing! I talk about this for almost a decade, have tons of people that argue me, that think or say they are experts and now this:

Netflix streaming over IPv6

June 15th 2009 by External

Two weeks ago, I noted that Netflix was accessible over IPv6. At the time, it was only their website, not their streaming service. Today, at NANOG 46, Netflix announced that their streaming service now supports IPv6.

Here's a screenshot of my Vista box running IPv6-only and streaming Serenity. Notice that there's no IPv4 address on the box.

There were several interesting bits in Netflix's slidedeck. Their Content Delivery Network, Limelight, announced IPv6 support today. This is huge, as they're the first CDN to announce production IPv6 support. Lack of IPv6 support in CDNs has been cited again and again as a primary factor in not deploying IPv6 on large content sites.

To my mind, there were two big points in Netflix's presentation:

1. IPv6 is easy. On Netflix's end, the entire deployment, from idea to production service, took two months. Limelight only tasked two engineers to work on IPv6 support.
2. "Load Balancers are easy." Alleged lack of IPv6 support in loadbalancers is a common canard that's totted out again and again when folks talk about production IPv6 deployments. I was so glad to see a large Internet content provider dispel this myth. Netflix even posted sample config for IPv6 on a Citrix Netscalar in their slidedeck.

I got a skype phone from someone who went to it.
When I picked it up, they had already quit using it and were going back to skype.
Trouble with receiving calls.
Their advice was to stick with skype, but there are other options too.
In certain situations, skype really saves money, like international travel in some places.

I haven't used skype yet, because I find their webhouse incomprehensible, and there is no support to ask.
